A colossal squid is caught on camera for the first time in the deep sea

A colossal squid has been captured on camera for the first time in the deep sea by an international team of researchers steering a remotely operated submersible. The sighting was announced Tuesday by the Schmidt Ocean Institute. The squid filmed was a juvenile found deep in the South Atlantic Ocean. The young squid had a transparent body and thin arms. As adults, the squids become an opaque dark red or purple. Researchers waited to verify the species identification with other independent scientists before releasing the footage.
